Imagine cruising down the boulevard in this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Hard Top, a beauty from an era of unparalleled style and automotive innovation. Its exterior, in Turquoise and White with metallic flakes, recalls the classic Harbor Blue. This Hardtop, with its two doors, narrates tales of yesteryear's adventures. It proudly rests on 15" Billet Specialties wheels, wrapped in 235 tires, ensuring a stance that's both confident and elegant. The chrome details have been polished to a beautiful sheen.
The interior of this '57 Chevy harmoniously blends Turquoise and White with a dash of Black and Blue trim, creating an ambiance that's both retro and refreshing. The bench seating, clad in durable vinyl, invites you to slide in and experience the era firsthand. The dash stands out in its well-preserved state, with clear and easily readable gauges, surrounded by a tasteful arrangement of AC vents and controls.

Lifting the iconic hood reveals the 350 V8 engine in an engine bay that is overall well-maintained and clean, reflecting the care this Bel Air has received over the years. It's equipped with a freshly rebuilt Edelbrock carburetor sitting atop an aluminum intake manifold, paired with a 5-speed manual Borg Warner T5 transmission.
